Pinterest Is the New Standard

My outfit pics are so queued up that I don't even know what day I wore this outfit last week. But it was worn, and that's the important part.

Anyway, how was your weekend?! Mine was packed, but fun! On Friday night we went to a Christmas party for our church and had some bombbbb Indian food. (I frigging love Indian food.) Then you might have seen on Instagram that on Saturday a couple friends and I hosted a baby shower for our friend Christine. She's a wedding/event planner, so we knew we had to make her proud, and we did! Not gonna lie, we were patting ourselves on the back for the shower looking like it ones we see on Pinterest. Because, you know, the standard of how good a party is is whether or not it looks like Pinterest, right? Ha. Anyway, we never thought we could throw parties that looked (and tasted) like those--at least not with our budgets--but we shocked ourselves that we pulled it off without breaking the bank! If I can get more pictures from a friend I'll be sure to post them.

Lastly, this scarf came in the mail from Eliza & Ro and it is SOOOOOO soft. Just FYI in case anyone is looking for a striped scarf!

You should post some pics of the "Pinterest" baby shower!!! I would love to see as I have to plan two early next year! ;) And thanks again for the sweet and thoughtful email. You seriously are the best!!

I might be biased--I think you can wear sparkle all year round. :) There's sparkle all over, but I don't think it's too in-your-face. Like, you can't even tell in these pics that there's sparkle to it. I think it also depends on which color you get.

Pinterest puts so much pressure on real life. Seriously, I pinned a photo of a baby dressed up like Frosty the Snowman and SERIOUSLY thought about having another baby, just to take that picture!!!! I am so glad Pinterest wasn't around when I planned my wedding- I would have been a total Bridezilla! I love your comfy outfit and the length of that sweater :)

I have a question about layering. Do you buy your cardigans a size bigger? I find that if I buy it in my size I can fit a tank underneath, but nothing bigger like a button-up. I'm scared to go a size bigger because then it will be too big when I want to wear it with a tank or dress.
